What 109 owners told NHTSA about the 2018 Chevrolet Cruze Limited

Noticed all 4 wheels are starting to rust on my 2018 Chevy Cruze. Owned many, many cars and have never had wheels rust. If this continues, over the years worried wheels will crack and accident will happen. I took car to Leader Automotive Service and they were aware of problem. Said they could coat each wheel for approximately $180.00. Why is this my problem when the manufacturer of the wheel should replace defective wheels. Thank you for listening.
